New Film released moments before JFK got Shot
The amateur film maker got a real good shot of the Texas School Book depository, I don't know why though?

2. Filmmaker apparently walked over to the plaza afterwards...filming
the place where (it was already believed) shots were fired from. The brief motorcade sequence on film was made a few blocks away from Dealey Plaza- and therefore not really valuable as evidence.

7. I noticed
that there is an agent on the back of the limo on Jackie's side. Where was this guy after they rounded the corner? Did he jump off? We know from the Zapruder film and the Altgens photos that there were NO agents on the limo at the time of the shots.
The Altgens photo taken from behind JFKs car on Houston St is especially interesting, as it shows no agent on the approach to the turn onto Elm.

20. Yup - just like clockwork. One minute they are there, the next they're not...
...very convenient for the shooters.

9. I had a similar impression
Something about the image quality. I also think it is odd how, as the motorcade is even with the photographer, we see Jackie and then JFK sort of 'pops' into view. Not interested enough to start analyzing some compacted web video but the whole thing is odd. Why this? Why now?

18. I think that 8mm film stock would be a lot harder to fake though...
There are probably a lot more ways to authenticate film stock (how it was processed, perhaps where it was processed, aging of the film, etc.), than if it were a "videotape" of it that we might get for more present day events. I'd be very suspicious if someone just gave me the video transfer of a film without the original 8mm film, but it sounds like that's not the case.

17. In Dallas, people locked up stuff like this and it's found after they die.
I lived there awhile, and went to the assination information center to research a role in "JFK." They said that they got photos over the years of the assasination scene. People hid them in safety deposit boxes and under the bed after the stories went out of cameras being confiscated on the scene.

Then when they died, the family learned of their existence, and brought them there.

12. Some Of The Other Videos Demean Women
Some of the other videos on the page you link to demean women.

There is a video entitled "Hot Meat" -- I did NOT view it, but it sure looks like something that treats women as raw meat.

13. Like a sitting duck. (Its authentic, I think)
No security at all. The limousine barely crawling by. The public was literally looking into their laps.

15. The second I saw this last frame I became suspicious. It looks like it was inserted
at a later time to support the lone gunman theory.

16. JFK's bunched-up at the back of the neck suit coat in video
is meant to debunk conspiracy theories relative to his back and neck wounds and bullet holes in the jacket.
